PITTSBURG always was a smoky city, and where there’s smoke there’s sure to be some Are. THE PROCLAMATION of equal suffrage appears to verify the old saying that what is done cannot be undone —especially a hard-boiled egg. GOV. GOODRICH’S DISCOMFITURE at falling into that pond was only increased by the discovery that it was already occupied by one bullfrog. WOULD IT BE PERTINENT to ask whether the arrest of all those jitney drivers was a part of the program to create more dissatisfaction with the 5-cent street car fare? Cox May Not , but He Does! The consternation and surprise created by the campaign fund charges of the audacious Mr. Cox has been well illustrated by William H. Hays in his latest public utterance. Mr. £lays arises to the full extent of his own peculiar dignity and shouts in his clarion notes: “Gov. Cox may not attack the integrity of those who have contributed toward the fund.’’ How like Mr. Hays this is! Not a particle of concern as to his own unsullied reputation and unimpugned motives, but the gravest worry lest something he said reAecting on the “integrity” of those who “have contributed to the fund” —and might reasonably be expected to contribute again when asked! \ The unselfishness of the gentleman from Sullivan is plainly discernible, his deep concern in protecting the source of the money he expects to use in his campaign management is almost as apparent and his broadminded anxiety lest it become unpopular to subscribe large amounts to the republican campaign fund is sure to meet the approval of his masters. But, you may ask, why may not Mr. Cox attack the integrity of those who have contributed? Is there any law to prevent it? Does contribution to the republican campaign fund insure one against attacks against one’s integrity? Or does the national republican committee undertake, through the wellknown bonding company of which Mr. Hays is vice president, to guarantee to campaign contributors that their integrity shall not be attacked? And if so, is the amount of protection governed by the amount of the contribution, as insurance is governed by the premium. Jimmy Cox. you are capturing the hearts of the American people in this polyglot land. You are confounding your opponents by your utter indifference to the sacredness of their most sacred cows. You are hitting where the hitting is good. "Whenever you make Will Hays rush into print unselAshly to defend someone else you may know that you are treading perilously close to something that Will Hays doesn’t want you to find.

Let George Do It! The resort of the committee in charge to full page advertisements in an effort to arouse fndianapolis to its duty of hospitality to G. A. R. encampment visitors raises a question in ones mind as what Is the matter with this community. The opening sentence of the advertisement offers an answer in the declaration, “there's too much of this ‘let George do it’ spirit.” Indianapolis people are not inhospitable. They are not indifferent to such civic duties as are involved in the entertainment of G. A. R. visitors. But it does appear that the spirit of “let George do it" has permeated the community to an extent that it is seriously interfering with a duty which there is no real excuse for shirking. In political affairs the spirit of “let George do it” has been so frequently encountered that it is not even startling. In civic affairs so much reliance Is so frequently placed in George that ; Indianapolis is today almost the only city of its size in the country- without a suitable auditorium in which to entertain a great crowd. In financial affairs the reference to George of important matters has 1 resulted in Indianapolis being second, instead of the first, city in the manufacture of automobiles. In school affairs George has been depended Upon so much that from the fore-ranks of school cities Indianapolis has slipped back to a point too far removed from the van to permit of much shouting. In fact, George does not appear to have been on the job to any greater extent than certain public officials recently and the result is not very gratifying to the citizens of Indianapolis who believe in doing things. Let’s eliminate this man George in this G. A. R. affair and when we find we can dispense with him in that manner try to get along without leaving other important affairs for him, too. Did She Learn Anything? The 17-year-old daughter of a Chicago millionaire, home on a vacation from her finishing school, got a job at a filing case in a large establishment and for two weeks she worked there eight and one-half hours a day, wearing cotton stockings, carrying her lunch and riding to and from work in papa's limousine. All this she did “in order to learn what a working girl does, eats and wears.” Naively she tells of her discoveries —that the working girls seem satisfied with life; that they like good times; that they wear silk stockings; that they eat regularly, and, oh yes, she found them very friendly and she believes they w-ill make excellent wives. Outside of learning that working girls are human beings, this young lady’s sacrifice of time does not seem to have been productive of much benefit. Perhaps tw o weeks is too brief a period in Which to acquire breadth of mind under such circumstances. It seems too bad this poor little rich girl could not have been with the working girls longer; in time they might have done more for her than the finishing school. For His Country Capt. D. D. Negley, civil war veteran and father of Harry Negley, republican floor leader in the Indiana senate, announces in an open letter his intention to vote the democratic ticket this fall regardless of a record of life-long service in the republican ranks. Capt. Negley tersely justifies this determination with the statement that “he cannot stand the corruption of the republican party in this county and state” and cannot stand with any party which is opposed to the league of nations. The veteran needs say no more in defense of his political reversal. It is difficult to understand how any man who has at some time or the other offered his life in defense of his country can now refuse to offer his ballot for the betterment of the nation. The only difference between Capt. Negley and a host of other patriotic Americans is that the captain has publicly expressed a determination that share. A Difference One of the very marked differences betw-een Thomas Taggart, democratic candidate for the senate, and James Eli Watson, republican incumbent and candidate for re-election, is becoming more apparent every day. Mr. Taggart is in this race because his party demanded that he enter it. Mr. Watson is a candidate because he desires to continue a long career of office holding. It does not require a great deal of understanding of politics to lead one to the conclusion that the man who is sought for a place in the senate is far more likely to conduct himself in abe interest of the people he represents than a man whose attitude by a desire to remain on the public payroll.

HOROSCOPE “The stare incline, but do not compel.”

SATURDAY, AUG. 2*. 1930. Astrologers lead ill omen In the stars today. Envy and jealousy are likely to be directed toward women, during this government of the stars. Many heartaches may be avoided by avoiding public activities. Newspaper notoriety is foreshadowed for many women and some political leader will snfisr from unpleasant publicity, the seers prophesy. Thir should be a fortunate time for social intercourse, especially for making visits among friends or near relatives. Continued prevalence tef crime is indicated bv the stars, which are read as presaging scandals among police departments in more than one city. Tb e king of Spain, who has been subject to menacing influences for some time, now comes to a place where he should draw about himself many safe* guards. Tlaces under Pisces continue to be menaced by unfavorable conditions thst will develop rapidly. Persons whose blrthdate it is have the augury of a year that will be pros perons if care is exercised. Children born on this day probably will be exceedingly quick witted, reliable and persevering. They are generally very agreeable and lovable. —Copyright, 1920.
